My wife and I had a great time experience and would definitely visit again. Martin and Marilyn were great hosts and were extremely friendly.

5 Sterne sind absolut lächerlich. Schlimmer geht es nicht. Mängel ohne Ende. Fotos sind nur ein kleiner Ausschnitt von massenhaften Missständen. Von völlig abgenudelten Möbeln bis hin dazu, dass die Gastgeber den Aufenthaltsbereich selbst als Wohnküche nutzen. Zudem müffelt es im ganzen Zimmer. 7 Tage gebucht, nach einem die Flucht ergriffen. Das einzig schöne ist hier die Aussicht. Wir kommen sehr viel in guten Häusern herum. Aber das hier ist mit Abstand das schlechteste was wir in Jahrzehnten erlebt haben. Die bisherigen guten Bewertungen können nur gekauft sein. Wir können nur dringend empfehlen sich vor der Buchung erst selbst ein Bild zu machen. Und dann ggfls. die gleich nebenan liegende Villa Amerikana zu buchen. Da erlebt man Qualität und Urlaub macht Freude. Nochmals, dringende Warnung vor dieser Unterkunft. Wir haben hier nicht einmal unsere Koffer ausgepackt.

Villa Paradisa made our stay in Knysna absolutely wonderful!! The location is great as it is very centrally located to everything. The owners Marilyn and Milton run a great accommodation. Their hospitality made us feel right at home. We even shared wine and cheese with them one evening and wish we could have stayed longer! They have great restaurant suggestions as well. Don't miss Isle de pain, O'Pescadors and 100% suggest the East Head cafe for lunch in one of the most beautiful locations in Knysna. We will definitely stay there again upon our return to Knysna

Martin and Marianne were superb hosts, they could not have done more to make our stay any more wonderful. The breakfast was very exceptional and cooked by Martin. We mentioned doing a boat trip of the lagoon to Martin who then provided us a beautiful boat and crew to spend a couple of hours cruising the lagoon. The pool at the villa is an infinity one with wonderful views over the lagoon. The drive to the villa is rather steep but easily manageable.

Amazing, Marilyn & Martin are the perfect hosts, nothing too much trouble from inviting us to join them for dinner and booking lunch for us the next day. Villa Paradisa is of the highest standard throughout its exceptionally decorated. If I could give 10* II would.

Bellissimo albergo con vista strepitosa
I proprietari e il personale sono super gentili e disponibili.
La stanza spaziosa, luminosa, con ampie vetrate e con una splendida vista su tutta la baia e città. Il letto grande e comodissimo, bagno ampio e tutto pulito e in ordine. Tutto curato in ogni dettaglio. La colazione sublime, preparato dal proprietario, ogni giorno diverso.
Inoltre abbiamo ricevuto consigli su cosa visitare, ristoranti ecc. Ci siamo trovati benissimo.
